The judge will render his decision on sentencing on the sex abuse convictions 25 January 2017 at 2 pm.

This breach charge is being handled apart from the sex abuse charges. I’m honestly not sure if that is good or bad. When ex-priest Donald Grecco was convicted on his breach charge in 2011 it was one of those ‘Tut. Tut. Bad bad boy’ moments. He was sentenced to the 30 days he had served pre-sentencing to run concurrently – plus one day mind you ! Let’s hope this is not a repeat.

No matter, Father Faucher is now behind bars for frequenting the children’s swimming pool in Lowertown Community Centre, Ontario and is due in court a Gatineau Quebec on the breach charge 12 February 2017.

I tried today to get the start time for the Gatineau court date. It seems there was no record to be found, and I am to call back tomorrow morning to try again! I will let you know. It would be nice to have a time.

I must admit that I can not stop thinking about this 80-year-old priest hanging around a swimming pool getting his jollies watching those children. Why else would he go? Why else risk jail by violating the conditions of his release?

It makes my skin crawl. It really does. I honestly hope pray that he never managed to get beyond ogling with any of the children he saw or encountered in those many many illegal “visits” to the pool.

The pool in question is actually located in Aylmer Quebec, where Mr. Faucher presently resides… it’s on the Upper Aylmer Road adjacent to the Provigo (formerly Loblaws) grocery store. The Ottawa Citizen updated their recent article to correctly identify the pool yesterday.

…it’s not terribly difficult. I use a “Feed Reader” called Feedly. It’s free to use, although there is a paid option. Feedly offers apps for phones and tablets as well, which will all sycnchronize
These instructions apply to the desktop (PC / Mac) version:
* Set up an account at feedly.com. When your account is ready, you’ll see an “add content” button in the top left corner. Click it.
* Type in or paste the URL of this site (www.theinquiry.ca/wordpress).
* Two results will come up. One is for the posts to the site (which Sylvia makes); another is for comments on posts (made by anyone). You can add those to your Feedly feed.
Once you have done this, new posts and comments will be fed to your Feedly page each time there’s something new. You can read them there and mark them as read afterwards, or click through to the actual post.
You can do this with almost all websites. It’s a great way of getting through lots of information in a short time.
